Differential phenotypic and genetic expression of defence compounds in a plant–herbivore interaction along elevation
Elevation gradients impose large differences in abiotic and biotic conditions over short distances, in turn, likely driving differences in gene expression more than would genetic variation per se, as natural selection and drift are less likely to fix alleles at such a narrow spatial scale. As elevat...
